What is there to do in Portland?

For a small town in a small state, Portland packs a punch that belies its size. The town has become rich in culture yet even richer in nature; acres of green land stretch across the parks and walking trails dominate the landscape. East Prom and Back Cove walking trails offer the most alluring and adventurous routes, whilst affording wonderful views of the surrounding mountainside. For a more leisurely stroll, head to Casco Bay to bask in the sea breeze and admire the beautiful vistas that are on display.

Aside from the natural aesthetics, Portland has a thriving waterfront that brings most of the excitement to the town. Shops, bars and restaurants decorate the promenade, creating a youthful energy that breathes vibrancy all through the busy streets. Portland has become renowned for many things, yet its shopping scene is what attracts so many visitors; shopping centres are littered with vintage stores and designer outlets. After a long day perusing the aisles for authentic clothing, it’s worthwhile checking out the museums and art galleries for a taste of Portland’s history and culture.

How do you get around Portland?

There are several buses that operate around the town, heading to prominent regions of Portland. A new car sharing service has been introduced to reduce carbon emissions and cut costs for passengers.
